This article is just more gaslighting. The zio regime never honored the ceasefire. NPR is genocidal trash.

Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19

Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Technically the ceasefire was still active because Hamas deemed it so out of good will, despite the massive amount of Israeli violations.
~~Ceasefire~~ pause to make Trump look good
You did it, Americans! You saved Gaza!
And the power infrastructure in Ukraine??? Secure the safety of the minerals and the Nobel is surely yours for Dear Leader.
No one expected anything different from Trump. Biden was held accountable for refusing to listen to his base. If they ignore their base then they deserve to lose. Hopefully the days of voters allowing their politicians to do anything they want without consequence is over.

lmao.
Yes, I'm sure Donald "You'll never have to Vote Again" Trump is working hard to make that a reality, good job.
We need grassroots opposition, organization, and resistance to fight back against American fascism
Much the way Biden said nothing will fundamentally change? And he was right, nothing changed for the rich while we got fucked. Good job.
Biden refused to break the law. If you want legislation to change taxes it has to go through Congress. It was 50 Republicans 2 independents and 48 Democrats for the first half and then 51 Republicans, 2 independents and 47 democrats in the second half of his administration. To fundamentally change things you either can do so legally by having majority support or illegally by overthrowing the government. Impeachment also takes at least 50% of Congress to file the articles. If Biden actually did something illegal he would have been impeached, yet while Republicans voted 50/51 against anything that mattered, they never could get all 51 of them to agree with impeachment, because Republicans were the ones who had to have agreed on EVERY piece of legislation that passed during his administration or it wouldn't have passed. Saying he was currupt was always a publicity stunt.
Do you think the Leahy Law wasn't violated? The support for Israel's genocide is bipartisan, they wouldn't impeach either a Dem or a Rep for it
Yes support for Israel was bipartisan. With minority support of Congress to not support Israel.
Yeah, Nineteen Senators Voted to Block Weapons Shipments to Israel a minority of the Democratic Party. Most of them along with every Republican Senator did not want to block weapon shipments, in violation of the Leahy Law and of course International Law
That was the Senate not Congress, but yes those are the numbers. The Senate holds terms 3x longer than Congress and thus do not represent their constituents as accurately. They are a not proportionatly representing the population which is why many believe they should be reformed. (1 member represent less than 600,000 people in one state, while another member represents ~19,000,000 people.). Their votes both count as 1.
So while the majority of Democrats now have an unfavorable view of Israel, where as in 2022 the majority had a favorable view, this takes much longer to get representation in the Senate. Are there representatives that vote against their constituents beliefs, sure. But when a change happens that fast it is very hard for a Representative based government to be able to move fluid enough to represent what the people want vs the payment checks coming from their campaign funders.
A dictatorship is not the answer, but we need voting systems that get accurate representation of the majority of the population much more efficiently. Unfortunately that would make us more of a democracy and the oligarchs don't want that. Because we would vote to better the majority and shrink the wage gaps. Which inevitably makes it harder for them to control the media when they don't have as much money to buy all of it. Making more voting go to help the people and not their pockets.
There are plenty of policies that have majority support, even from Republican voters as well, that the Party has not implemented. On a weapons embargo, you're right that the switch happened relatively fast, due to the obvious reasons, but that doesn't excuse the Party from ignoring the issue. Especially during a critical election, when they are, at least in theory, supposed to be going after the most amount of votes they can. Representatives, both Senate and House, regularly hear from their constituents. They see the polls. It's their own decision to go against their constituents.
I'm all in favor of an improved democratic system that better represents the people, both locally and nationally. There are many many aspects of our 'democratic Republic' that is antidemocratic. But my main point is that the Parties have no genuine interest in what the people want. They are entirely beholden to the interests of corporate donors. And in that, I think we're in agreement.
The Democratic Party is no genuine opposition to the fascist threat of the Republican Party, precisely because of how much they gravitate towards the interests of corporate donors at the expense of the people.

No. Biden refused to listen to 10% of his base in the hopes of keeping the 90% happy. That 10% decided they'd "hold Biden accountable" by supporting Republican flavored genocide, because reasons. Congratulations, I'm sure Biden really learned his lesson.
Unfortunately a large block of the American voting base believes in fairy tales.
"But evangelicals’ support isn’t simply driven by a theology that compels them to love the Holy Land, detached from its convulsive domestic and global political implications. For many “Christians Zionists,” and particularly for popular evangelists with significant clout within the Republican Party, their support for Israel is rooted in its role in the supposed end times: Jesus’ return to Earth, a bloody final battle at Armageddon, and Jesus ruling the world from the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. In this scenario, war is not something to be avoided, but something inevitable, desired by God, and celebratory."
Does the Democrat flavored genocide taste better?
Never was there ever a poll with 90% of Democrats in support of Israel's war. Usually the strong majority of Democrats wanted it stopped. You're just writing fan fiction here so you can feel good about dismissing a genocide as a worthwhile political event.
Well, if the 90% of his base is why he was supporting Israel, I'm sure they are happy with this result as well, so whatever the 10% did doesn't really change anything. You sound pretty chippy for getting to blame the 10% for everything the Democrats did wrong, so clearly you're part of that 90%.

Let's discus a truce with ruzzia now! Trump is the best negotiator! I think if we (not Ukraine) just give all Ukrainian territory to Putin then he probably won't murder the Ukrainians that are still alive. Wonderful negotiations. Let's discus the stoppage of violins coming in from Gina into mejico too.
Israel are the new nazis!
Alternative, AMD. Apparently I have been boycotting isr*el for a long time
Also recommended: The 'No Thanks' app to scan barcodes or look up company names with your phone and see if the brand is invested in Israel.
Downloading an israel boycotting app sounds like the perfect way to get into a list.
Posting any slightly pro Palestine comment or following pro Palestine content creators will also put you on a list.
It is time to stop worrying about their lists. The movement has grown beyond the size where Zionists can stalk and blackmail singular individuals.
But for those worried about lists the website link is also a great option.
At least NPR are saying Israel broke the ceasefire. NYT managed to report on Israel attacking while not explicitly saying that Israel violated the ceasefire.
Yeah but they're acting like they broke the ceasefire with this recent massacre when they've never complied at all.
Is that so? Did they continue offensives after the ceasefire was agreed to?
sounds like the genocide is going well.
AIPAC money has always been bipartisan. Zionist garbage taking Zionist money are gonna do Zionist things.
